It's Not in Your Head

22 Sleep and Pain: What's Driving What?


Listen Later

Dan and Juz dive into the significant relationship between pain and sleep, and how it drives sensitization. They cover sleep basics, how lack of it long-term negatively impacts patients cognitively, and share a helpful analogy you can use as a patient to better explain what chronic pain feels like - especially with regards to increasing buckets of central sensitization. Dan then delves into the medical side of sleep, covering disorders including snoring, as well as various medications used to treat sleep. On the next episode, Juz will cover the conservative management strategies on the patient end, so you can further improve fatigue and cognitive dysfunction.
